[SOLVED] Unable to Set Accurate Time/Time Zone

Help and Support Help
1

I tried

[code]volumio@volumio:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
[sudo] password for volumio:

Current default time zone: ‘America/New_York’
Local time is now: Thu Aug 3 09:14:51 EDT 2017.
Universal Time is now: Thu Aug 3 13:14:51 UTC 2017.[/code]

Clearly that isn’t correct since this is my system date and actual date and time

user$date Fri Sep 29 00:10:02 EDT 2017

My alarm that I had set keeps going off in the middle of the night and I realized it was because this was wrong. Is there a way I can manually change the date and time and not just the time zone since that clearly is wrong.

Looks like michaelangelo said this in another post…so date/time is broken atm?

Resolved
Followed the github pages and came up with…

CRDA with proper county code REGDOMAIN=xx in /etc/default/crda
timedatectl set-ntp true
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
